Use Wine to Make Sense of the World

By Elliot Essman

My goal in writing this book was to weave together my entire experience as a human being and put it into the context of wine, writes the author. We have no substitute for wine in our civilization and culture. It touches everything we do, and every part of life we consider important. Lest he be accused of taking himself too seriously, Essman never fails to inject his own brand of wit into nearly every segment. I dont want every reader to agree with my point of view, he states. My real goal is to ignite ideas and discussion, and have a lot of fun in the process. Key themed sections include: ?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of Desire and Lust?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of the Five Senses?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of Other People?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of the Natural World?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of Your Body?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of Language?????????Use Wine to Make Sense of Your Brain?O ?Oall interspersed with Elliots probing observations on taste, wine behavior, the French, the British, wine education, literature, poetry, cocktails, philosophy, history, music, internet dating, and the rest of life as we live it on this planet. Unique!
